Let your feet nc second stay;

STRAY SUNBEAMS.


sion nine members of the house died,
and two senators. Four members of
the new congress have died already
KANE, of New York; ROBERTSON, of
louisiana; PRICE, of Wisconsin: and
MOFFATT. of Michigan; and several
other representatives are sick, some of
them reported as dangerously ill. The
bad ven tilation Of the capitol building
is responsible for the bad health among
congressman. Several years ago Gen.
BUTLER introduced a resolution in
structing special committee toascer-
tain some means by which air could be
got into the representative hall without
piping it through tubes, and light could

has been no improvement in the venti-

1t is said that Speaker CARLISLE is in
a quandary to know what to do with
Representative MILLS of Texas, in the
way of fixing him On committees. MIR.
MILLS friends are urging him for the
craftsmanship of the ways and means,
while Mr.. RANDALL'S friends intimate
that if Mr.. MILLS gets that place it will
relieve them of all obligation to act in
concert with the Democratic majority in
arranging a tariff reduction bill. 1t is
probable, however, that Mr.. RANDAIL's
friends are like the wolf in the fable
who picked quarrel with the lamb for
muddying the water. Any sort of an
excuse will do them to provoke fight
against tariff reform. What Mr.. CAR
Isle should do is to construct ways
and means committee that will construct
a tariff bill in harmony with the views
expressed by Mr.. CLEVELAND in his
annual message. If he does this the
fight among the leaders of factions can
go on without detriment to the country.

Hon. KNUTE NELSON announces that

statesmen in the Fifth district willing
to take MIR. NELSON'S job off his hands
and pay him a bonus to boot. The
hardest thing in the world for politi-
clan to do is to induce the public to be-
Heye that he is in earnest when he talks
about letting go of a 5000 Office. Still,
if such an unheard-of thing should Oc-
cur as a Republican voluntarily retiring
from Office, there are some other Repub-
lican officeholders who could be spared
better than KNUTE NELSON.

Overstudy Among Children Running Many

DR.. William A. Hammond read a
paper on brain Forcing in the Educa-
ton of Children" recently, before $50
members and guests of the Nineteenth
Century Club. He told of a little girl
brought to him one day afflicted with
st. Vitus' dance. She had been to
school and in her book-bag she had an
English grammar, an arithmetic, a
geography, history of the United
States, an astronomy, temperance
physiology and hygiene, French
grammar, French reader and treat.
Use on general science. These sub
jects she was expected to master at
home in six and half hours, if she
gave the needed time TO sleep, to eat
ing, to dressing and recr cation. Con.
tinuing he said:
She had learned all these things, but
she was spending her brain capital. not

ruptcy was staring her in the face. We
are living too much under the reign OF
the schoolmaster. The brain of child
at seven years is larger in proportion
to its body than is the brain Of an adult

ten years ought to learn solely through
